Adrian is going to Ibiza.
Benjamin is going to Australia.
C is going to Hilton Head.
And I? I’m just going crazy. Stir crazy.
My ‘maybe in the spring’ plans with Elle to go to Italy are not making it any easier to deal with the fact that I haven’t had a real vacation is a very, very long time. Maybe in the spring? Spring is ages away and I’m already about three stops away from Crazytown on the express train!
I become eligible for parole vacation sometime this fall. At which point, my recent windfall (currently slotted for a savings account) will be plunked down, my suitcase filled up and I’ll be off like a pair of pink flip flops on a white sand beach.
That being decided, I’m not likely to get a lot of work done today. Daydreaming tends to take up most of my brain power.
Shuffleboard and skeet shooting on the Aloha Deck after lunch. Julie, the ship’s Cruise Director tipped me off. You’ll meet me out there, n’cest pas??
I feel your pain.
Don’t worry I’ll have pictures of drunken antics to amuse.
I totally empathize, fish. I’ve started wishing for illness to get out of going to work.
Hm, I thought daydreaming was the *only* use for brainpower.
Just yesterday I asked a co-worker how they’d feel if I popped out of their trunk when they arrive in Hilton Head later this week!
I then proceeded to whine, “I just wanna go away now, please!”.
Totally unattractive, especially at work. Now I will suppress that whining urge … for a few minutes at least.
Console yourself with the thought that some beaches (like Hilton head) are prone to be fraught with danger as hurricane season starts to rear its ugly head.
Shuffleboard is all well and good, but where are the cocktails with parasols in them?
now you’ve put daydreaming and vacations in MY head. gah!
i completely understand vacation envy. my next trip probably won’t be til the spring… but it’s a trip to NYC!
Is Isaac still tending bar in the Crow’s Nest?
My Daughter was a total slut.
